Barbossa was climbing up to the crow's nest when he saw Roxxi sitting there. "Mrs. Sparrow, shouldn't you be in your cabin with your husband?"
She looked over at him, surprised. "You can see me?"
He nodded, confused. "Yes, why wouldn't I be able to?"
She looked down at her boots. "No one else can, not even my sisters or my kids." Then a curious smile stretched across her lips "Could you get me some rum?"
He reached the deck when he remembered something: Roxxi's dead. He froze, realizing that he was just talking to a ghost.
"Are you just going to stand there all night?" Will asked, staring at him. "Shouldn't you be in the crow's nest?"
Barbossa nodded. "Aye, just going to get me some rum and an apple."
When he got to the Rum Locker, Barbossa found Roxxi, sitting on a barrel waiting for him. "What took you so long? I was just about to leave!" She asked.
Barbossa looked at her. "Don't you know yer dead?" he asked.
Roxxi nodded, then she picked up a rum bottle, used her teeth to pull out the cork, spat it out, and drank some rum. "At least, I think I'm dead."
Barbossa shook his head. "Can Jack see you?"
Roxxi smiled. "You know what, I didn't even try yet!" She vanished, and Megan came down. "I need to tell you something."
Jack was in his cabin, unable to sleep. He walked over to a book self and pulled out a book at random. He smiled as he read the title: Romeo and Juliet. It was one of Roxxi's favorite books, and it had thousands of marks on the worn cover to prove it. As he opened the book, a dried rose fell out. He picked it up and looked at it, remembering how much Roxxi loved roses, especially red ones...
"I loved that book." a voice said. Jack looked up and saw Roxxi standing there.
"Roxxi!" Jack said. He stood up and tried to hug her, but his arms just went through her. She gave him a reassuring smile.
"Sorry Jack, but I'm just a ghost." She said. Jack sat down at his desk.
"Roxxi, where's your body? If we had it, we could go to Tia Dalma and she could-"
"She's at Shipwreck Island, for some rare ingredients." Roxxi said. "I've got no idea where my body could be."
Jack looked at his wedding band, which was still on his finger, then looked at her. Then he got up and tried to kiss her. This time, they made contact. When Jack pulled away, he could see Roxxi blushing, then start to vanish. "Roxxi, don't go!" he shouted, but she shook her head.
"I can't stop it!" Then she was gone, leaving Jack. He looked over to the contents of his desk, and saw his pistol...
"Jack, are you alright?" Elizabeth asked, walking into Jack's cabin. "You've been in here for a while and we're starting to worry. Then she saw his desk, and noticed that his pistol was gone. She ran into his sleep quarters and pulled the pistol out of his hand just as he was about to shoot himself. "Jack, what are you doing?"
He gave her a hopeless smile. "She's gone."
Elizabeth looked at the pistol. "So you're just going to shoot yourself?" She then uncocked the pistol and threw it.
Jack watched it as it landed in the far corner. "Why do you care?"
She smiled. "Because you have two little children to raise."
Meanwhile, Roxxi woke up in a bed. She looked around at the room she was in, trying to figure out where she was. She knew, by the rocking and the salty smell, that she was on a ship, but that was about it.
"So, you changed your mind about death, haven't you?" A voice asked. Roxxi looked over and saw a man, wearing a British uniform, holding a tray of food.
"Who are you?" she asked.
The man took off his hat. "I'm Commodore Samuel Smith."
The next day, Amara ran into Jack's cabin. "Daddy, Buster's missing!"
Jack gave her a confused look. "Who's Buster?"
Amara grabbed the bottom corner of his vest to get him to follow her. "The rooster!" She said.
Jack shook his head, amused. "You named the chickens?"
Amara looked at him. "Yeah, why wouldn't I?"
Jack smiled. "Cause I already named them."
She gave him a surprised look. "What did you name them?"
"Dinner."
Then Mr. Gibbs ran to him. "Captain! The Endeavour and the Dutchman have both just been spotted!" Then the ship shook. Jack ran, leaving Amara with Mr. Gibbs.
The little girl smiled at him. "Did you know that Daddy named the chickens?"
Jack watched as the kraken's tentacles reached onto the deck of the Pearl. Then Jade ran over. "Calamari!" She shouted, then loaded a cannon and fired it at a tentacle.
Jack looked at his crew, who was looking at him. "Load the guns!" Then, as Jack watched, a tentacle lifted a long boat, containing Roxxi and Commodore Smith, and stuffed it into it's mouth. Jack thought for a moment, then looked at the Treasure.
Ever since Roxxi died, no one would go on to the Treasure, so they've been towing it along with some rope. Jack looked and saw that one of the ropes was tied from the Treasure's rigging to the Pearl's. He climbed up to the rope, with Beastie following him, and grabbed onto the rope. He sliced the rope with a knife, grabbed Beastie, and jumped. Jack then used the same knife to slice all the ropes attaching the two ships. The kraken moved to the Treasure, and instantly pulled the ship into it's mouth and left.
The whole crew stood stunned at what Jack did. Barbossa was the first to say anything. "Now we've got to go to back to the locker to get that idiot back, again!" He said, throwing his hands into the air in frustration.
Jackie looked at him. "No we don't. He gave me his 'piece of eight'." the little boy said, holding it for all to see.
A week later, they caught up to the Misty Lady, which had stopped to repair the main mast after a typhoon. Teague jumped onto the Pearl, then looked around.
"Where's Jack?" He asked.
Barbossa walked over to him. "He's in the Locker." Teague then noticed that each member of the crew had some black garment of clothing. Some had bandanas and some had sashes.
"Where's Roxxi, and her ship?"
Barbossa sighed. "She's dead, shot by Beckett and her ship's with Jack."
"Where's the kids?" Teague asked.
Barbossa then looked at the captain's cabin, which was left a crack open. "Amara is in her cabin and young Captain Sparrow is in his. They both just feel asleep half a hour ago."
Teague smiled, very amused. "Your captain is a five-year-old?"
Barbossa shrugged. "Aye, Jack made him captain and gave him his 'piece of eight'."
